The High Intensity Proton Accelerator (HIPA) at PSI presently has a radio frequency (RF) beam position monitor (BPM) system based on 20-year-old Xilinx Virtex-2 Pro System-on-Chips (SoC), with application-specific integrated circuits (ASICS) as direct digital downconverters (DDCs). For the planned upgrade of the electronics as well as for new HIPA projects, we started the development of a new HIPA BPM electronics, using a generic electronics platform called "DBPM3" that is already being used for SwissFEL and SLS 2.0 electron BPM systems. In this contribution, first test results of a DBPM3-based HIPA BPM electronics prototype are presented, including a comparison with the present electronics.
