The correct option is 1

Concept:

  • Common collector configuration, also known as emitter follower provides high input impedance and low output impedance. So they are used for the purpose of impedance matching.
  • In common collector configuration, the collector terminal is common to both input and output terminals.

Important Differences between different transistor configurations is as shown:
